That's when rival BYU will make its first -- and much-anticipated -- visit to War Memorial Stadium since 2009. It could be the Cougars last visit to the high plains, too.

"It's not lost on me as the head coach and going through all the different parts of the state how big of a game that is for the Wyoming fan base," Jay Sawvel said last July, referring to a series that dates all the way back to 1922. "Maybe, in part, because they're not on any future schedule, either. So, I mean, there's a very real chance that there's a generation of Wyoming fans that this would be the last time that they'll ever see BYU in our stadium."

The Cougars hold a 46-30-3 advantage in the all-time series and have won nine straight over the Cowboys, including a 24-21 victory in the 2016 Poinsettia Bowl.

"This is a big deal. It's a big deal to the fans," Sawvel added. "It's an old rivalry. There's a lot of old tradition to that. You know, our responsibility is to play for Wyoming that night."

Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. Mountain Time on Sept. 14. The game will be televised on CBS Sports Network.

Wyoming and Idaho have met eight previous times, dating back to 1921. That was also the Vandals last win in the series. The Cowboys held on for a 21-16 victory in Laramie in the last meeting back in 2019.

The tilt with Front Range foe Air Force on Sept. 28, along with the first home game against San Diego State since 2016, also have limited tickets available, according to UW's official website.

University of Wyoming’s Top 50 Football Players

During the summer of 2021, 7220Sports.com counted down the Top 50 football players in University of Wyoming history, presented by Premier Bone & Joint Centers, Worthy of Wyoming.

The rules are simple: What was the player's impact while in Laramie? That means NFL stats, draft status or any other accolade earned outside of UW is irrelevant when it comes to this list.

This isn't a one-man job. This task called for a panel of experts. Joining 7220's Cody Tucker are Robert Gagliardi, Jared Newland, Ryan Thorburn, and Kevin McKinney.

We all compiled our own list of 50 and let computer averages do the work. Think BCS -- only we hope this catalog is fairer.
